Marvel's "Thor" transformed Chris Hemsworth into a household name, with his most notable credit prior being 2009's "Star Trek" as George Kirk, father of Captain Kirk (Chris Pine). In between these blockbusters, Hemsworth headlined "The Cabin in the Woods," a horror film produced and co-written by soon-to-be "Avengers" director Joss Whedon.
While released not long after "Thor," "Cabin" was actually filmed years prior and originally set to release in October 2009, but was delayed due to mismanagement at MGM. In the years since, "The Cabin in the Woods" has become a bona fide cult classic, even if it wasn't a monster hit in theaters. It's become a favorite of horror fans and wider audiences alike, as proven by recent stats showing it as the eighth most streamed movie by U.S. HBO Max viewers
